The purpose of this post in relation to your original question is unclear. Just wanna say that with these entries, the title on yr selection screen will read ”Boeing 737-MAX8 BRITISH AIRWAYS BRITISH AIRWAYS”. No big deal, but for me that would be a no-go :cool:. Wim

Maybe a little video will clear this out (in combination with the text in my previous post). Not a pro, but here goes: @CRJ: I tried to recreate your window config from yr pic at the start of the video Wim

There are several references to non-existent files or folders, like panel=pax model=JT8D sim=DF_722 The latter seems to be for Dreamfleet, not TDS btw. Almost every added [fltsim.x] section has one or more of the above errors. Too many to correct without getting hands-on with the TDS, which I don’t plan as I’m happy with my Captain Sim. I suggest you document yourself on how to add extra liveries, and the meaning of each line in the sections. There’s a good article in the “How to ...” section of this website. Wim

The separate Windows within the Main application Window can be grabbed and dragged around, just like normal "Windows"-windows :rolleyes:. Sometimes a bit annoying, I confess. Click and hold your mouse in the zone(s) I've coloured pink/red, then drag to place. When positioned, a splitter icon will appear over the windows separators/borders, so you can resize. Wim

Did you try the scenery order I suggested in your post about 3 (can be 4) weeks ago? Again, I don't have UTX, I don't know how to line it up in the scenery library to get it to work with ORBX. One thing I know for sure: UTX can't cause ORBX objects to go black. Wim

It was a calculated guess. Internal Graphics is far from the best option for FSX. IMO in yr case, it's struggling to get your graphics on-screen. More technically knowledgeable people can drop in, but a "budget GPU" (like a 1050Ti) could help a lot. Not only with the Font problem. Wim [EDIT]If your computer allows it. As said not I'm not a technical genius, far from...

Connected to the Internal Graphics Port? Wim

Doh... I had them unchecked for some reason... When I enabled them again: Apart from the objects that aren't black anymore, I see other differences between your and my pic (trees on the apron for example). I wonder how you installed the scenery in the first place. It should be done through FTX Central, and let OrbX handle things. So I'd reinstall the Global Airports Pack, check if the OrbX Libraries need updating, then see what gives. Wim

A tool that might help you to locate the offending scenery is LittleNavmap. https://albar965.github.io/littlenavmap.html Amongst other very useful features it can be used to determine which scenery BGLs are active for a given airport, and which one is topmost. In the below pic for example you can see I have only default scenery for CYHM. [EDIT]I have Orbx Global Freeware airports installed as well, so no need to search that way. Wim

Correction: the command is called "Eyepoint reset", the default keystroke is . Wim

There’s a View Center command, by default assigned to Ctrl Space or Shift Space IIRC (not at my sim computer). You can assign it to a joystick button as well (joystick 1 or 2 by default IIRC). . Wim

Check the sim= line [fltsim.0] calls for Boeing 787-800 RR.air. [fltsim.1] calls for Boeing 787-800 GE.air. Check if you have those files in the main TDS 787 folder. Just an observation btw, I don't have the aircraft, not planning to install it either. So here is where I leave you. Wim

That's new to me, always eager to learn. Please elaborate. I also don't see any difference in MrZippy using the strobes and you the taxilights, as both seem equally "normal and common" to me. But who cares? Wim

Run as administrator? Wim

I guess we must assume THE country is USA? Must be some scenery you've added lately. Or AI traffic. Wim

Sigh... and bye. Wim

High time you learn something about fuel and payload planning. Not only your weight should be below MTOW when starting the flight (unless you plan a really long taxi), but you also need to consider that, at the end of the flight, you also need to be below Maximum Landing Weight (which is considerably lower). Don't change anything in the config files. If it's HJG, they're most likely correct. If going into the fuel and payload menu before every flight is already too cumbersome, you might consider flying GA aircraft. Or consider another hobby. Wim

If I understand correctly, it worked on my install NOT 'cos of Accel, but because of some previous hocuspocus I did for other downloads? I DO have a GaugeSound.dll in my main FSX folder. Wim

You'd be surprised once you get it working. Bad news is I'm not smart enough to solve IT problems. Wim

+1. Tried the download mrzippy suggests OOB in FSXA. No problems at all. Wim

Never liked the idea. The sim might save settings you're not aware of, and therefore compromise your next flight. How hard can it be to write down an ICAO, stand number and time-of-day? Wim

??? You'd be better off with tweaking IMO ;) [EDIT]Sorry... good luck Wim

Hi again, 1) Addon Scenery (now at 31) should always be topmost, at 1. Scenery BGLs placed in Addon Scenery\scenery must be able to overrule everything. 2) The ORBX insertion point should not be ON TOP. I'd place it where Addon Scenery is now. So in FTX Central (on the start screen click the "Settings" button bottom left) : Where it prompts for "FTX Entries should be inserted below:" you point it to the scenery entry "UT Exclusions for Default Scenery" (now at 30). "OpenLC Entries should be inserted below: FTX" is default and stays that way. Click "Save" and exit FTX Central (or stay there to install additional ORBX stuff). From now on, ORBX will enter additional packages at the chosen insertion point. Also, UTX will now overrule ORBX in the regions you own (USA and Canada). Without knowing/owning UTX, I have a good feeling about this. Now you can continue installing the other airports, etc. They all go on top, above UTX. Just remember to reposition "Addon Scenery" topmost after installing something. Wim

Don’t think there’s a problems in distributing repaints, modded aircraft.cfg or instructions on how to modify it. As long as you don’t include the model (or the modified one) itself. Wim
